If Mississippi State notified the SEC what did they do? How come it is just now it's being reported? SEC=Slim Shady!!!

I thought the check register was funny, but this is hilarious. I sure hope that there is really fire behind this whole scene, because it sure looks like it is stacking up higher and higher against Newton, and as Scottyd just stated about the possibility of a backlash against Auburn in the polls. (Although, I think they will get beat yet and that will take care of itself).

This goes over the time line a bit, although MSU has more explaining to do:
Mississippi State did what it was supposed to do | Mr. College Football
Yeah, he's too trustworthy. And he accidentally spilled water on the computer and that is why he threw it away...Not because the cops were looking for it. Everybody has this guy all wrong.

NCAA could ask Newton to sit - College Football - Rivals.com
Apparently there is a precedent that might allow the NCAA to ask Auburn to sit Newton until the investigation into improper benefits is concluded. Still lots of wiggle room though...

So did Newton come to Auburn on Chizik's watch, or was he already there before his hiring? An awful lot of smoke going on.
"The solicitation of cash or benefits by a prospective student-athlete or another individual on his or her behalf is not allowed under NCAA rules."
So just having that conversation will make him ineligible so if there is hard proof these conversations went on then he definitely would be in hot water. And now with more and more people connected to Mississippi State coming out saying hi dad Cecil did exactly that solicit money for him and his son from MSU boosters.

Quote from Cecil Newton to his son in 2009: "Son, God has a plan. His plan was to put me in charge of a collection agency he affectionately refers to as a 'Church'. Then, in exchange for a cut of the profits God would give me you. And he gave me you, so you could give ME hundreds of thousands of dollars. And after you give me lots of money, I will give 10% to God, who happens to be way behind in his bills. It's called a win/win situation."

I think I remember seeing somewhere that Cecil was quoted as saying "it won't be free this time" or something like that. I hate FLA and Meyer as much as the next guy, but I don't think this part will hurt FL. Releasing the records that were not supposed to be released could be a different story though, but I don't think that would hit the football team.

My dad told me that there was a rumor going around that a poster on a different board was talking about the cheating.....a couple days before the story leaked. The poster claimed to be the brother of Florida's video co-ordinator (or something like that). If that's true, the football program could get hit. I suspected something like that anyway. What does the school gain out of leaking his records? Nothing. What does Urban Meyer get (especially considering HIS team's mediocrity, Auburn's dominance, and Newton's Heisman candidacy)? The sweet nectar of revenge.
